    I swore I wouldn't do it...

    ... but I just picked up my very first smartphone..... the iPhone 4.

    My biggest holdout was that it wasn't available on my carrier, Verizon. Well, after finding out that Verizon was cancelling their unlimited data plan effective 7/7/2011, I figured that since I was overdue for a phone upgrade, I'd bite the bullet.

    It's going to take me weeks to figure this thing out. SOAB.....

    I've had an iPhone for over three years now, feel free to ask me questions. Let me tell you how it's gonna go, though: at first, you're baffled and a little intimidated. Then, you're fascinated. Finally, you wonder how you ever go along without the damned thing—especially the Maps apps.
    All the world’s a stage, but obviously the play is unrehearsed and everybody is ad-libbing his lines. Maybe that’s why it’s hard to tell if we’re living in a tragedy or a farce.

    No you're not. Not by a long shot.

    OK, how the fuck do you change/delete Cupertino from the weather app? How do you add something in its place? I don't GAF about the weather in Cupertino!

    Down in the lower right corner there's a white circle with a lower-case "i" in it. Touch that and you'll get a window where you can delete Cupertino by touching the red circle with a "—" in it that's next to it. To add a new one, touch the square with the "+" in it in the upper left corner.
